Passive Dock, TomTom, Fixed Installation Dock

The TomTom Fixed Installation Dock is a passive dock designed to secure a compatible TomTom device in a permanent vehicle or fixed-location installation. Finished in matte black, the dock offers a low-profile mounting option that holds the device steadily while allowing full access to the screen and controls. As a passive solution, it does not contain active electronics; it provides a dependable mechanical mount and contact points for power or data connections when used with appropriate vehicle wiring or accessories.

Advantages

The dock’s compact and durable construction provides stable, vibration-resistant mounting suitable for daily use in vehicles. Its passive design reduces potential points of failure and simplifies installation by avoiding internal active components. The matte black finish minimizes reflections and integrates unobtrusively with most dashboards or mounting surfaces. The dock enables straightforward docking and undocking of the device while maintaining firm retention when engaged.

Suitable for

• Permanent vehicle installations for fleet or personal navigation systems
